It’s tough to know what to get someone for Christmas when you can buy everything with just a few clicks. While gift cards and all manner of gadgets are go-to choices, why not give your loved one something you know they’ll see and enjoy every single day—a smoother and more youthful-looking face. A PhotoFacial offers an easy, comfortable, and relatively fast way to enhance the skin that doesn’t involve needles, surgery, makeup, or mystery creams. To learn why it might just be the perfect gift for that special someone, keep reading.

Shine a Light on the Subject

PhotoFacial involves high-intensity pulses of light being directed toward the skin. Rather than damaging the surface like chemical peels or laser treatments, the surface of the skin is left alone. Rather, the frequency of light only affects the underlying layers, stimulating the production and reinvigoration of collagen. This is the substance that gives skin its elasticity, smoothness, and glow. You have a lot of it when you’re younger, and it slowly goes away as we age.

Rather than doing something unnatural to the skin or forcing it to change, a PhotoFacial gently enables it to de-age itself. The result is that someone doesn’t just look younger, but their skin has actually become more like it was in their 20s.  

More Than the Face

While a PhotoFacial can do wonders for the forehead and areas around the eyes, nose, and lips, it can also be used to improve the skin on the neck, chest, and arms. No matter where someone’s trouble spot might be, PhotoFacial can take care of it, restoring collagen where it’s needed most.

It Does Everything

On top of reducing wrinkles and fine lines, PhotoFacial can also…

  • Reduce or remove sunspots and other signs of sun damage
  • Even out skin tone
  • Reduce redness stemming from Rosacea
  • Create more radiant, glowing skin

Suited for All Skin Types

Many facial treatments were designed and only really work for lighter skin, but PhotoFacial is perfectly suited to help anyone regardless of their shade.

Fast & Flexible

A PhotoFacial session typically only takes about 30 minutes, and the collagen production brought on by it lasts for days following it. Based on someone’s goals, the treatment can be tailored to them to ensure it gives them exactly what they want. The number of sessions and how the light is applied can all be adjusted to perfectly suit an individual.

While you can’t exactly fit a PhotoFacial in a stocking or beneath a tree, you’ll be able to watch your loved one’s face light up when they receive your gift. Then you’ll literally see their face light up after they complete their first session!
